Ford WOT8 with Katyusha BM13

[Larry Hayward]

I have just found this photo on a web page of photos from the Eastern Front, taken by German soldiers. It is a Ford WOT8 fitted with a Stalin Organ and as the photo was taken by a German soldier it must have been captured by them but whether the Germans used it is not known.

I couldn't find reference to Ford WOT8 or WOT6 being sent to Russia as war aid, so is this a captured British Army lorry converted by the Germans rather than the Russians?
